How to Install SKS T6 Stocks

The SKS T6 stock is a durable tactical stock, produced by Tapco, to replace the original wooden one. The Tapco T6 stock is adjustable to six positions and is ergonomically correct. The hand-guard of the T6 stock has a Weaver-style scope mount attached, so that you can easily attach accessories (such as scopes, lasers or flashlights) to your rifle. Tapco T6 stocks are produced in the United States and are compatible with all variations of SKS rifles.
